until they are withdrawn. Contributions may be tax deductible in the tax
year in which they are made.

least $250,000 and backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States Government through the National Credit Union Administration
To be eligible to open a Traditional IRA an individual must have earned
income and be younger than 70 ½ years of age.
You may contribute
any amount up to 100 percent of your earned income or $5000, whichever is
less. Individuals age 50 and over can make an additional "Catch Up"
contribution of $1000 for an annual total of $6000. The IRS may change
contributions limits on an annual basis.
IRA's for a taxable year
can be opened and/or funded anytime between the first day of the tax year
and the date a tax return is due for that year, excluding extensions. For
most taxpayers this due date is April 15 of the following year.
Traditional IRA earnings remain tax deferred until you make withdrawals
from the account. They are then taxed as income in the year they are
withdrawn.
You must begin to make required minimum distributions
from your Traditional IRA at age 70 ½ or risk additional tax penalties.
